EPISODE SYNOPSIS: Lynda was among the estimated 800,000 women who marched on Washington DC to protest the Bush administration’s policies they felt encroached on abortion rights. Joined on stage by Senator Hilary Rodham Clinton, actresses Whoopi Goldberg, Cybil Shepard and media mogul Ted Turner, Lynda, dressed in a yellow windbreaker over a pink top, wearing a white tennis visor, spoke out against the Republican President and Congress who are trying to dictate their outdated morals on women’s rights and said that she wouldn’t stand for mixing church and state, and that she’d escort the President back to Texas. This morning News show features a report about this March.

VIDEO: [1] "WUSA NEWS". Videoclip. TRIVIA:
[•] The station officially went on the air on January 11, 1949 as WOIC-TV, and began full-time operations on January 16. It is the fourth-oldest station in the nation's capital. Its original owner was the Bamberger Broadcasting Service, a subsidiary of R.H. Macy and Company, which also owned WOR-AM-FM in New York City, and was working to put WOR-TV (now WWOR-TV) on the air at the same time. Nine days later, WOIC broadcast the first televised American presidential inaugural address, given by President Harry S. Truman.
[•] WUSA-TV began broadcasting digital television in 1999 on WUSA-DT, channel 34. From the start of transmissions, WUSA-DT carried the HDTV transmissions of the CBS Television Network in the network's chosen standard, 1080i. On May 2, 2005 at 11:00PM EDT, WUSA-DT became the first station in the D.C. Metropolitan Area to broadcast their local newscasts in HDTV using the 1080i standard.
[•] Up until 2002, newscasts were branded under variations of the Eyewitness News brand. This has been dropped in favor for 9 News or W*USA 9 News. Traces of the name Eyewitness News remained on various graphics until an all-new set of graphics by Giant Octopus were introduced in 2005 when WUSA started broadcasting news in high-definition.
